Why the Owner Chose Private Homes
20+ years ago and for several years, our family rented the same vacation home at Folly Beach. We loved the relaxed and peaceful, family-friendly atmosphere that Folly offers and we made many lasting memories. When we had the opportunity to purchase this house (and not even looking to buy a beach house!) we seized the chance. The location was an instant draw and we love that it is truly the perfect house! We invite you to experience our home for your next beach vacation.

This is our third year staying at this house and we can't even imagine going on vacation if not here! We have 3 children and 4 grandchildren aged 4 and under and this is house is perfect. We have plenty of room for sleeping, the screened porch is a great play area, and it is literally steps to be ocean!! We didn't get to stay a full week this year but our 5 days were the most relaxing and fun filled of the year so far!! Thank you, Carla, for sharing your beautiful home with us!! We had a ball again!

This is our second visit to this house and we enjoyed it as much, if not more, than the first time. From the quiet beach to the awesome screened in porch, this house is the most relaxing place one could find. During high tide, the water was two steps away. During low tide, we treasure hunted for shells. We even saw a baby loggerhead turtle making it's way to the water during one of your beach walks! If you are looking for a great rental, look no further. Carla and her family will take care of you!

Our week of family togetherness included 12 people ranging from ages 17 to 74. Your home on Ashley Avenue provided just the right mix of immediate beach access, ping pong and pool tables, tv/movie times, and the space we needed to enjoy each other's company. The Bose system and iPad were an unexpected but certainly welcome perk. Parking was never an issue, and access to the shops and restaurants were just a few minutes away. There's not one thing that any of us could come up with that could improve our vacation there. The appliances were modern and the decor updated and very tasteful. This is one house we would definitely reconsider booking in the future. We had a really great time.

My trip with my husband, mother and aunt was, in all of our opinions, one of the best experiences of our lives. The pictures on the website, although beautiful, can not fully illustrate the true beauty of the home and the location. Since returning from our April trip, I think daily of the amazing time we had at Carla's beautiful home. My mother/aunt are boasting to all their friends in Ireland about what an incredible holiday they had. I hope we can make it a yearly treat. It was expensive but then again, you really do get what you pay for.... worth every last penny.. I will remember that view and the happy memories we made there for the rest of my life.

What a great place to spend spring break. While the weather at home was cold here is was warm. The house had everything we would need; Close to great food down town. The Kitchen had everything we needed to cook Easter dinner. The kids had games; movies and ocean toys to use, no need to bring anything. Walk the beach every morning. Watch the sunrise. Great house. Thanks

We had 10 women in our party. We were daughters, nieces, cousins, sisters and aunts. We had never been to South Carolina so we had no idea what to expect. The beach was beautiful! The weather was great and we were there in May. The house completely exceeded our expectations! Not only is it beautifully decorated and very spacious--=plenty of room to accommodate 10 women, but it is so well equipped that we never had to or wanted to leave!! We cooked, we drank wine, we ate, we laughed, enjoyed the beach and the screened in porch! We never once turned the T.V. on!! Upon a recommendation, we did go to Charleston which we heard was a short drive and very charming...we enjoyed it...but we were truly content just staying at the beautiful beach home. No one needs to look any further than this home for a great vacation in a home that is so well taken care of. Loved it!

Folly Beach's Best

We just returned from a wonderful week stay at this beach house! We were 2 families (four adults and 5 children) who had a fantastic time. The home's proximity to the beach, along with the fabulous screened in porch, made those on "nap duty" feel like they were still part of the action. In fact, for the first time ever, I wanted to volunteer to be the person who stayed at the house with the children. The bedrooms were spacious and nicely appointed. It was so nice to wake up and see the ocean from our bedroom. The kitchen had everything you needed and more. We loved having the washer and dryer, too. We enjoyed taking a couple rides in the golf-cart down to the lighthouse. Our kids had a great time! It was fun to be in a less crowded area of Folly. This home WAS "loaded with luxury" as the advertisement states. The owners were available to answer questions, before, during and after our stay. It is very obvious that they love their home and love sharing it with others! You can NOT go wrong with this property!
